    Sounds like you need a new MAF. With it unplugged it is running off of preset tables and will not run its best, but will run. Don't drive it with the MAF disconnected unless you desparately have to. If you do, then it may be a good idea to remove the SC belt. I'm not an S/C guru but I swear I've read that here before.

    You can drive on the tables, but don't go beating it. Drive as though you have part of it's leg cut off... nicey nice...

    I agree, you seem to need a maf sensor.
    I drink..so consider that when reading my posts.

    Check the voltage of the reference wire and make sure it is 5 volts. If it's much higher, you may be frying the new sensors. Possible electrical short somewhere?
